Typical Tories

Watching News 24 this morning Gordon Brown and Labour were in the North-East. Outside the TESCO they were visiting were a handful of Tories with placards.

I thought it was amusing, and typical of the Tories that when the BBC interviewed them, not one had a Geordie accent! One of the things that worker should remember is that the Tories current standing in the opinion polls - which isn't that great even so - is largely based on their support in the affluent South-East. Just as regions like the North-East, Scotland etc. were attacked and abandoned in the past, so in a climate where a Tory Government is set on attacking workers, the Tories will ensure they look after their heartlands in the South-East.

And, just as the Tory-light Liberals, have sucked up to Tories in Council Chamber up and down the country, so the Liberals would go along with Tory cuts at a national level if it meant getting their grubby fingers on Government office.
